74 * UI_DEV_SETUP - Set device parameters for setup

76 * This ioctl sets parameters for the input device to be created. It

78 * via write(). To actually set the absolute axes UI_ABS_SETUP should be
79 * used.

83 * id: See the description of "struct input_id". This field is
84 * copied unchanged into the new device.
85 * name: This is used unchanged as name for the new device.
86 * ff_effects_max: This limits the maximum numbers of force-feedback effects.
87 * See below for a description of FF with uinput.
88 *
89 * This ioctl can be called multiple times and will overwrite previous values.
90 * If this ioctl fails with -EINVAL, it is recommended to use the old
91 * "uinput_user_dev" method via write() as a fallback, in case you run on an
92 * old kernel that does not support this ioctl.
93 *
94 * This ioctl may fail with -EINVAL if it is not supported or if you passed
95 * incorrect values, -ENOMEM if the kernel runs out of memory or -EFAULT if the
96 * passed uinput_setup object cannot be read/written.
97 * If this call fails, partial data may have already been applied to the
98 * internal device.

173 * To write a force-feedback-capable driver, the upload_effect
174 * and erase_effect callbacks in input_dev must be implemented.
175 * The uinput driver will generate a fake input event when one of
176 * these callbacks are invoked. The userspace code then uses
177 * ioctls to retrieve additional parameters and send the return code.
178 * The callback blocks until this return code is sent.

184 * 1. Wait for an event with type == EV_UINPUT and code == UI_FF_UPLOAD.
185 * A request ID will be given in 'value'.
186 * 2. Allocate a uinput_ff_upload struct, fill in request_id with
187 * the 'value' from the EV_UINPUT event.
188 * 3. Issue a UI_BEGIN_FF_UPLOAD ioctl, giving it the
189 * uinput_ff_upload struct. It will be filled in with the
190 * ff_effects passed to upload_effect().
191 * 4. Perform the effect upload, and place a return code back into
192 the uinput_ff_upload struct.
193 * 5. Issue a UI_END_FF_UPLOAD ioctl, also giving it the
194 * uinput_ff_upload_effect struct. This will complete execution
195 * of our upload_effect() handler.

197 * To implement erase_effect():
198 * 1. Wait for an event with type == EV_UINPUT and code == UI_FF_ERASE.

203 * uinput_ff_erase struct. It will be filled in with the
